Second Life

— filed under: Second Life, Asus EEE

One of the main reasons for getting the EEE was to run Second life. Despite server report of of it working I would say it been a bad experience. I can connect to SL yes in the 1.19.1.4 viewer, but there the fun ends.

Problems.

Balp-Build, wound start, GLIBC_2.4 not found, looks like ubuntu and debian xandros have really different libraries.
1.19.1.4, Window size, the minimal windows size of 600 pixels high if much bigger that the EEE's display with 480 pixels. In window mode the size of the window resets to 1000x700 at each start up. Probaly have to to the with 600x480 don't work to open.
Full screen mode keep's crashing.
Using start up parameters --set WindowWidth 800 and --set WindowHeight 460 will make a usable window, adding this to options and hacking into the config set up.

Using a SD card I have a build enviroment, and 1.20.RC12 running.
